The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 20, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 14, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 14–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 27, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 5, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Election Law and Internal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 19, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1968) was adopted on a voice vote on June 6, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On June 6, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 13, 2007 the House adopted “House Non Concurs with Senate AM, Request Comm of Conf, Rep Clemons” on a voice vote. On June 14, 2007 the Senate adopted “Sen. Burling Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 18, 2007 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill.
